In your situation, like someone else mentioned you don't have the need to spin the blower up like the centrifugal so I would definitely get after those 3.55s.
yeah the KB is night and day as far as tq delivery from my old vortech setup. So i think the 4.10's will problably hurt me at the strip traction and mph wise.

i would say the 3.55 at most. I have the stock gears in and I am sticking with them. I dont see any point in changing them. First gear is pretty much useless even with the stock ones...on street tires anyhow. Maybe dr's would change my opinion but idk.

Really you should be able to hook on the street with 400 rwhp and 4.10s with a centri it is all about suspension.

OP - Definitely then go with 3.55s instead of 4.10s. I will go with 3.55s possibly when I do my rear end.
